His Holiness Subhag Swami Maharaj conducted a wonderful Preaching tour of Bangladesh from 10 December 2012 to 22 January 2013. The tour commenced by seeking blessings as well as shelter of Haridas Thakur Patbari at Benapole, just after crossing the India –Bangladesh border by road, the most sacred spot where Haridas Thakur delivered the prostitute Lakha Heera devi.

After imbibing the spirit of Mahaprabhu’s sankirtan movement for a few days at the lotus feet of Thakur Haridas, the team of devotee

kandoh pramlocaya labdha kanya kamala-locana

Translation: O sons of King Pracinabarhisat, the heavenly society girl named Pramloca kept the lotus-eyed daughter of Kandu in the care of the forest trees. Then she went back to the heavenly planet. This daughter was born by the coupling of the Apsara named Pramloca with the sage Kandu.

So as soon as you engage yourself in pure devotional service without any material desire, without any material designation, immediately you are liberated. Svarupena avasthiti.
